Pay-as-you-use logistics management on-line
June 1st 2006

In 18 months Deltion's online, pay-as-you-use logistics management has developed into a major multi-user service with almost £250m in goods moving through it annually. CarrierNetOnline, www.carriernet.co.uk, is now the number one payas- you use Internet service for collaboration, visibility and transport management.

The first user of the service was The HazChem Network. Deltion established and hosted a dedicated online operation for them which went live in October 2004. Since then CarrierNet has grown to the point where in January 2006 there were seven customers operating collaborative networks with almost 650 shippers and transport companies around the UK.

These companies now move more than 102,000 pieces of cargo a month using the network, ranging from small parcels to pallet loads and drums of hazardous chemicals.

Piyush Shah, CEO of Deltion (pictured), says that the CarrierNetOnline service allows multiple customers systems running on different servers to communicate in unison and real-time. "This provides the most advanced implementation of Deltion's collaboration and visibility platform which allows companies to truly use the potential of the Internet to revolutionise the way in which companies and users trade and interact with each other," Mr Shah said.
